Exa (formerly Metaphor) API in Python
Note: This API is basically the same as metaphor-python
but reflects new
features associated with Metaphor's rename to Exa. New site is https://exa.ai
pip install exa_py
Import the package and initialize the Exa client with your API key:
from exa_py import Exa
exa = Exa(api_key="your-api-key")
# basic search
results = exa.search("This is a Exa query:")
# autoprompted search
results = exa.search("autopromptable query", use_autoprompt=True)
# keyword search (non-neural)
results = exa.search("Google-style query", type="keyword")
# search with date filters
results = exa.search("This is a Exa query:", start_published_date="2019-01-01", end_published_date="2019-01-31")
# search with domain filters
results = exa.search("This is a Exa query:", include_domains=["www.cnn.com", "www.nytimes.com"])
# search and get text contents
results = exa.search_and_contents("This is a Exa query:")
# search and get highlights
results = exa.search_and_contents("This is a Exa query:", highlights=True)
# search and get contents with contents options
results = exa.search_and_contents("This is a Exa query:",
text={"include_html_tags": True, "max_characters": 1000},
highlights={"highlights_per_url": 2, "num_sentences": 1, "query": "This is the highlight query:"})
# find similar documents
results = exa.find_similar("https://example.com")
# find similar excluding source domain
results = exa.find_similar("https://example.com", exclude_source_domain=True)
# find similar with contents
results = exa.find_similar_and_contents("https://example.com", text=True, highlights=True)
# get text contents
results = exa.get_contents(["ids"])
# get highlights
results = exa.get_contents(["ids"], highlights=True)
# get contents with contents options
results = exa.get_contents(["ids"],
text={"include_html_tags": True, "max_characters": 1000},
highlights={"highlights_per_url": 2, "num_sentences": 1, "query": "This is the highlight query:"})
